About this Program

The Anoka Technical College Practical Nursing (PN) program continues to be approved by the Minnesota Board of Nursing and is specifically designed to train graduates for the specialized field of Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN).

Program graduates are educationally eligible to take the National Council Licensure Exam for Practical Nurses (NCLEX - PN) and, after passing and obtaining state licensure, may use the title Licensed Practical Nurse. After passing the PN exam, students are eligible to apply for licensure in all states. (For specific state licensure requirements, contact the State Board of Nursing in that state.)
